The proposals, which would utilize existing tracks and cars, would affect, the subway's INDBMT division.

Midday Service Through 59 St. A Rush Hour Service would be reduced in order to beef up other lines. Final approval of the proposals must come from the board of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, following public hearings.

TA President John Simpson told the study committee six weeks ago that he would rather scrap the proposals than battle stiff community resistance at local planning boards if it develops from riders whose travel habits would be changed.

The RR line, which now begins its run in Astoria, Queens, would become the line, leaving from Continental Ave. in Forest Hills. It would make more round-the-clock stops than the old line.
